Join in on this ancient tradition dating back to the mid-200’s when Italians celebrated under the stars. Legends say that the shooting stars are the tears of St Lorenzo; scientists say that the Perseids Meteor shower is the cause. Dinner and stargazing will be held at the Borgo Antico Agriturismo where an astronomical telescope and an astrophysicist will be present to explain the reasons behind this phenomenon.
